DTI sets new record for business name registration outside NCR

In its steadfast drive to promote inclusive growth and boost economic activities in the countryside, Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) recorded an increase in the number of businesses registrations outside the National Capital Region (NCR).

“We are pleased that our goal to equally drive business opportunities in the country’s regions is now being realized,” DTI Management Services Group (MSG) Undersecretary Nora K. Terrado said.

Terrado noted this is the first time in the history of DTI’s online Business Name Registration System (BNRS) that the largest number of registration was recorded outside NCR.
